Answer to Question 1
If prison is a punishing experience, criminals will be deterred from crime, and current prisoners will be encouraged not to commit any other crimes. The crime rate has lowered and the number of prisoners has risen due to this philosophy. This philosophy promotes penal harm, which is a current movement that believes the purpose of corrections is to punish offenders severely as possible.
Answer to Question 2
The functions of prisons include getting dangerous people off the streets and giving them just deserts for their crimes. Prison success is measured by various factors. These factors include physical security, length of incapacitation, a lower crime rate, and inmates who fear future criminal sanctions. Ultimately, the purpose of prisons is to punish criminals. Prisons are also supposed to reform criminals and keep them from recidivating after they reenter society. Prisons also provide jobs for the local community. Work in a prison can serve as an important career in corrections.
